Brightline West will be America’s first true high-speed passenger rail system. The modern, eco-friendly system will redefine train travel in America and connect two of our most iconic destinations: Las Vegas and Southern California.
This 218-mile passenger rail service will be operated by Brightline West from Las Vegas to Rancho Cucamonga, California, with 96% of its alignment within the median of the I-15 highway.
Today, nearly 50 million annual trips occur between Los Angeles and Las Vegas – over 85% of them by car – a trip which is unpredictable, unreliable and challenged by congestion. Brightline West expects to serve more than 11 million one-way passengers annually.
The project is near shovel-ready and expected to break ground in the second half of 2023.
